Colman nepos Cracavist
Colman〔The Irish Gaelic name Colm or Colmán gave rise to the Latinisations Colmanus and Columba and the diminutive Columban(us). All these names are largely interchangeable, cf. Michael W. Herren (2000), "Some Quantitative Poems Attributed to Columbanus of Bobbio," ''Poetry and Philosophy in the Middle Ages: A ''Festschrift'' for Peter Dronke'' (Leiden: E. J. Brill, ISBN 90-04-11964-7), 111 n54.〕 (''floruit'' c.800),〔M. Esposito (1932), "The Poems of Colmanus 'Nepos Cracavist'; and Dungalus 'Praecipus Scottorum'," ''Journal of Theological Studies'', 33, 118, assigns him the early ninth century.〕 called nepos Cracavist ("grandson of Cracavist"),〔The more probable derivation of his name is from ''episcopus craxavit'' ("the bishop wrote"), cf. Herren, 111.〕 was a Hiberno-Latin author associated with the Carolingian Renaissance. His poetry is full of classical allusions and quotations of Virgil.〔His poems are translated by Peter Godman (1985), ''Latin Poetry of the Carolingian Renaissance'' (Norman: University of Oklahoma Press), 278–81.〕 He may have been a cleric at Rome, as the manuscript which nicknames him states; there were several such Colmans at Rome in the ninth century. He may be one of those responsible for spreading the cult of Saint Brigid in Italy.〔 One manuscript suggests he was a bishop.〔MS BN lat. 18095, where his poem is titled "Versus Colmani episcopi de sancta Brigida" (Verses of bishop Colman of saint Brigid).〕
==Connections with Bobbio==
On the basis of similarity in prosody, he has also been identified as the composer of certain poems traditionally assigned to Columban, the saint and founder of Bobbio Abbey.〔However, Colman refers to himself as "Colman" in his poems, Columban as "Columban" (Herren, 111).〕 These are ''Columbanus Fidolio'', ''Ad Hunaldum'', ''Ad Sethum'', ''Praecepta vivendi'', and the ''celeuma''. Since the former was in manuscript by c.790 and the latter was probably used by Paul the Deacon (d.c.800), their poet's dates are set to the late eighth century.〔Though he may have written much earlier, or even be Columban (Herren, 112).〕 It is possible that Colman was merely the imitator of Columban. He would certainly have had access to the latter's works if he lived in Italy.〔Herren, 113.〕
There survives a notice of some books gifted by a priest named Theodore to Bobbio (''Breve de libris Theodori Presbyteri'') that lists: ''Martyrologium Hieronymi, et de arithmetica Macrobii, Dionisii, Anatolii, Victorii, Bedae, Colmani, et epistolae aliorum sapientum liber i''. Whether the Colman is the poet "nepos Cracavist" or another is unknown, likewise are the books of his donated.〔Esposito, 119, hypothesises a ''Epistola Colmani de arithmetica'', but notes that it may be a reference to the ''Historia Ecclesiastica'' of Bede, which deals with a dispute involving Colman of Lindisfarne at the Synod of Whitby in 664. This notice was first printed by L. A. Muratori (1740) in his ''Antiquitates Italicae Medii Aevi'', iii, col. 822.〕
